Anyway, it looked to me like they had 20 or 30 in stock. As the other poster said, that $180 deal is in-store only.<BR/><BR/>I was there last year for BF and it was crazy. They may not have the same incredible deals this year but it may not be worth saving the extra $20 if it takes 4 hours to complete the purchase.thepezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12220907827740916266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21402852.post-64377335229574444792007-11-21T04:29:00.000+10:002007-11-21T04:29:00.000+10:00Eurobotniks: If you come over here and buy enough ...Eurobotniks: If you come over here and buy enough of them, you might save enough to pay for the airfare from Europe to U.S. ....<BR/><BR/>I'm just sayin'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21402852.post-81628242790541532782007-11-21T02:22:00.000+10:002007-11-21T02:22:00.000+10:00Microcenter Online no longer has any NXTs.

Never in my life have I been tempted to venture out on Black Friday. This just might do it! My friend advises that I go 40min before closing time. <BR/><BR/>But w/ the internet sales you've just posted, I'll likely save myself the hastle and the trip to the LEGO store for what probably would be only 10% off.<BR/><BR/>Last year, I got our first NXT kit w/ a 20% internet coupon w/ free shipping. I was hoping for the same this year but those coupons were out in September so I likely missed them.<BR/><BR/>Again, thanks for posting the sales. You saved me some money.<BR/><BR/>LEGOmomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
